Nightmare passing from Souttar so far. It's so predictable. No link ups or movements. Irvine just stumbling not getting the ball away. 

India swarming well in numbers. I guess every football game you need to wait for the lapse in concentration due to fatigue. A dire first 15 with no sense of superiority or apparent plan.

Feels like such an uninspiring starting 11.

All very limp.

India should have scored. Way better chance than anything we've created.

Maty with a mask and cap in the sunlight trying a quick free kick with teammates facing away. Stop with the playing out stuff when no one is concentrating!

It's a very poor lineup. Sad to see. And expectedly because of it we are playing poor

Baccus just lobs it to an obviously offside Duke. Crap Goodwin corner. I'm livid at this. Metcalfe totally anonymous and Jones being overrun a few times. 

Souttar hasn't played inn ages yet that didn't prevent all the other good games last year for the national team.

How the hell did we balls that up. Crap.

"Let's put our best pressing and defensive lineup against India"  - Arnold probably

FUCK OFF IRVINE WHY ARE YOU RUNNING OVER A TAP IN??

Poor balance by Metcalfe and dumb shot by Baccus. 

We have a very static front third. Give the mids and backs someone to pass it to!!!!!!

Haven't seen anything to warrant Jones' selection. Makes no sense to me.

100% correct so far.

Corner Metcalfe is a waste of space. Zero creativity 

Our midfield is just nightmarish on the ball. One or two passes through the Metcalfe who could then turn and feed it was better. We're just dazed and complacent. Not awake at all.

What is this garbage system with inverted fullbacks and then having Irvine linger way out on the left sideline? Irvine should be central.

Irvine in possession is a very poor player. He could give 5 goals and Arnie would still start him in a few days time. 

Does Chhetri's looks remind anyone else of Cahill at times?

I'd die for an O'Neill, Robertson and Volpato midfield right now.

Arnold's dumb instruction for him to linger in their defensive line allows for 50/50 balls every time it goes to him. He should be hanging a bit on the 8. I don't get why we aren't playing with a fulcrum and running onto the ball. Inverted fullbacks and lingering way too close to their defence instead of in the spaces.

Boyle dribble skills is shocking 

Wow finally something more basic and we get through the middle!

He's probably very nervous making his tournament debut and all.

Jones seriously thought about a risky backpass while Ryan was on the sideline....

Yeah does not work at all. We're bad enough as it is breaking down stacked defences so why try barge through the middle and have less numbers out wide. Boyle doesn't suit sitting deeper.

Why Metcalfe didn't help Bolye with combination play. Boyle is struggling with the double team on the RW.

This inverted fullback garbage is so wasteful. Two blokes who'll just hang and can't shoot. In turn our wingers are stranded with the ball because Irvine and Metcalfe wish to be in the box for a prayer cross.
